Everyone told me that Derek is an amazingly ‘crazy’ guy when I met him over a dinner gathering.
When I got to know more about his story, I learned that he had been juggling between a fulltime job and social work since the beginning, founded his own NGO ‘Developing Youth Organisation’ 2 years ago and started a social enterprise ‘Bluup Events’ recently to connect corporates with homes.
The intention to set up his own company was caused by a health hazard that created the sense of urgency - what more can he do to make a difference?
In this episode, we talked about:
- Consistency comes from planning
- Action wins support from closest people around him
- You need to be full before you can give
- Everyone has the power to make a difference
